Yeah, they eat them whole...alive. As the smart little buggers try (but fail) to squirm away.

It's some kind of right of passage type thing to some martial arts schools so I've read. In the vid I posted it looks like they are pulling the suction cups off. Seen plenty where they literally just grab and eat without any prep and have seen quite a few have theirs get caught in their throats.

I think I'll stick to tentacles, thank you. Hopefully they have less cadmium in them, I don't believe in aphrodisiacs and the odd piece of octopus sushi that I eat from time to time isn't going to kill me and is not nearly as disgusting as any animal's head.

Fun Fact: Cadmium yellow was a popular paint with the Fauves and impressionists such as Vincent Van Gogh, who may have been poisoned by it.

Fauve means a wild beast and the colour of a wild beast--brownish yellow. It was, a Terry Pratchett would say, a pune.
